Suppose A is n x n matrix and the equation Ax = 0 has only the trivial solution. Explain why A has n pivot columns and A is row

equivalent to In. By Theorem 7, this shows that A must be Invertible.)
Theorem 7: An n x n matrix A is invertible if and only if A is row equivalent to In, and in this case, any sequence of elementary row operations that reduces A to In also transfrms In into A-1.

Answer:

Remember, a homogeneous system always is consistent. Then we can reason with the rank of the matrix.

If the system Ax=0 has only the trivial solution that's mean that the echelon form of A hasn't free variables, therefore each column of the matrix has a pivot.

Since each column has a pivot then we can form the reduced echelon form of the A, and leave each pivot as 1 and the others components of the column will be zero. This means that the reduced echelon form of A is the identity matrix and so on A is row equivalent to identity matrix.

Can you please explain how to solve this?
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

hello,

as this is a parallelogram we can write that BE = DE so

15x + 4 = 9x + 6

<=> 15x - 9x + 4 = 6

<=> 6x = 6 - 4 = 2

<=> x = 2/6 = 1/3

so BE = DE = 15/3+4=5+4=9

so BD = BE + DE = 9 + 9 = 18

the correct answer is 18

hope this helps

Answer:

5^8/5^6=5^2

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing numbers with powers, it is handy to remember that

x^y/x^z=x^y^-^z

so

5^8/5^6=5^8^-^6 = 5^2
